Located on the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, the picturesque Atlantic province in eastern Canada is characterized by fertile soils, rich fishing grounds and sustainable agriculture.
Whether it's delicious Malpeque oysters, lobsters or an abundance of fresh fish, the province's pristine waters bring the culinary treasures of the sea to your plate. Visitors can enjoy a variety of seafood dishes, from juicy lobster rolls to seafood soup and pan-fried scallops.
Prince Edward Island is often referred to as Canada's “potato province” because of its high-quality potatoes. The island's red soil and favourable growing conditions produce over 100 excellent potato varieties. Potatoes are used in many typical provincial dishes and side dishes, from French fries to mashed potatoes. We recommend a delicious potato garden salad, the recipe for which can be found in the Taste of Canada recipe booklet.
